So apparently wanting to get an emergency appointment with your GP to get the prescription to start your anti depressants isn't an ****ing emergency. DEPRESSION ISN'T AN EMERGENCY!

That means I have to wait until the 16th of April AT LEAST to start my medication.

I'm so ****ed off
just got invited to a BBQ with the people I went to the protest with on Saturday :redface: one of them even sent me a message hoping I can come, feels like...well, it's been like 2 years since I last had friends I could hang out with :colondollar:

now to make sure I actually go and don't make a prat of myself...

Most drs have on day routine appointments, so they arnt in the emergency clinic. I often phone up at 8am and get one.
The idea of emergency appointments is like things that arnt bad enough for A&E but need urgent attention, like severe pain, infections and the like.
Medication isnt classed as emergency.

I know it's not, but I've called up since Friday and I keep getting told, no the 16th is the earliest we can see you. It's honestly annoying.

For mental health emergency appointments are usually only for when you are at immediate risk of hurting yourself/others - from what I understand. Hope things get better soon, don't give up.

Need to get it into my thick head that I'm not worth anything and that people don't give a **** about me. The sooner i understand this, the better it will be.
